PART I.
"Wc have been crulsliiK for four months
In the waters of the eastern Archipela
go, and for nearly a week we bad been
nnioiig l tic Ladrones, a group of Islands
with perhaps as bad a reputation a
any even In that part of the world. The
group Is a considerable one. We had
already visited two trading stations be
longing to the owners of the brig, and
one evenlnu we found ourselves drift
ing rather than sailing between two
romantic-looking islands whose peaks,
rltdng sharp and sudden, separated by
deep and narrow valleys, choked with
dense masses of tropical vegetation. suf
ficiently proclaimed their volcanic oti
Iliti. Tom Madison and I were seated idly
on the bulwark, our eyes wandering
lazily we had just finished a good sup
perfrom the purple tints of the shore
past which we Were drifting:, to the
still mote wonderful colors of the sea
and sky, now bathed In the light of the
ulmost level sun. 1 had been asking
Tom, who was an old hand In those
waters, having acted as supercargo for
the owners for years, how this par
ticular group of islands had gained so
bad a reputation as to be named "The
Knbliers" hereubouts where all natives
beenied to be thieves.
"Thieves," said Tom, "well I don't
know that for that matter they de
serve it either better or woise than their
neighbors. It's only a question of op
portunity, I take it, with any of them,
as it is with a good many other people
Mho don't hail from the I.adrones."
"Hut surely there must have been
some reason," 1 said, "why they gut
the name from the Spaniards, or who
ever It was that gave It them?"
" h. yes, of course, though very likely
It originated in a mistake, and It's just
as likely as not they have been the vic
tims of a slight misunderstanding. Ky
the by. the whole thing took place close
by here, If I'm not mistaken."
'Tell us the yarn, Tom," I said, "it's
th very time and place for u good,
tuugh old yarn such as nobody could tell
much better than these old Spanish
mtvlgatois."
"Well, It's not much of a yarn after
nil. It was somewhere about 157S that
it happened, I believe. Une of those
su-i-alled treasure ships put In close by
here at lllolo bay on her way across
the 1'aoIHe, and she never got any
further. Only a single boat's crew are
eitld to have escaped, and they said
the great galleon was taken and de
rtruyed for the sake of robbery, but of
bourse we have only their word for
that. All that is known for certain is
that the treasure ship was burnt and
mink, and that ever since then the
islands have gone by the name of the
'he Ytobbers,' as a kind o set olf for
the loss of the galleon."
"Whereabouts was It, Tom?" T asked,
my Imagination llred by the Idea of
the sunken treasure ship.
"Well, the story goes that it was
just Insldo the bay round the next
noint, but of course nobody can tell
for certain at this time of dny."
It wus with a strange feeling of ex
citement that I watched the deep bay
of lllolo slowly open to our view,
Kplendid In all the glories of a tropical
sunset.
At another time I might have been
content to admire, but not now. The
story, vague and merely suggested as
It had been, had awukened a hundred
memories of tales of sunken treasure
snips ana their fortunate recoverers, I
and as we turned slowly Into the bay, I
my eyes were eagerly fixed on the ',
glassy waters now gleaming with a
thousand tints rellected from the sky
overhead.
We drifted round the point and Into
the bay, our sails hardly lifting to the
scarcely perceptible evening breeze,
and our course marked only by the
faintest ripple on the glassy water. As
I leaned over and gazed lixedly down
wards into the depths below hi the ef
fort to penetrate the secrets which
that transparent liquid, glowing with
the color of the dying dny, had kept
so safely and so long, I felt my eyes
grow more and more accustomed to
the new medium till I seemed to see al
most as clearly through the crystal
wuter as T could through the upper air.
It was more than twenty fathoms deep
mid yet I could see the bottom olain
ly. Great branching corals spread
their boughs of crimson and blue, ot
green and white a rich ocean shrub
bery of form and color more splendid
than any garden of earth. Beneath
the branches the silver sands glittered
nnd sparkled with a thousand shells,
nnd llsh of dazzling gold and deepest
tinted blue swam In and out and
nibbled the tender shoots of the coral
that seemed to move softly with the
movement of the tide.
Suddenly as I gazed in breathless ad
miration a shadow seemed to rise in
the very midst of Neptune's llower gar
den. Was It a rock? It, too, was en
crusted with corals that grew out of it
at every angle, while long-haired me
dusae spread their tendrils to each mo
tion ot the water; yet as I looked It
somehow seemed to take a shape that
was familiar, though strange the
shape of a vessel! I started up.
"The galleon, Tom!" I exclaimed,
"the sunken treasure ship!"
"Nonsense, man, you've got a strong

there is no secret. Its for
mula can be had for the ask

untried, doubtful thing. For
twenty-five years it has been
held up to the physician and
the people as the standard
emulsion of the world, and
it is as much and more the
standard to-day as it was a
quarter of a century ago. Is
the best any too good for vou?

Imagination," said Tom, "that's what's
the matter with you."
I pointed downwards over the side.
"Look!" I said.
Tom leaned over the bulwark and
looked down. I glanced upwards nt the
sails they hung motionless against
the musts. 1 looked around there was
not a tipple on the water; we were be
calmed. Tom stared for a minute or
two Into the glassy depths without
speaking, then he looked up.
"Well," he said, "it's queer, certainly,
and I'm not sure but you may. be right.
Hut If you are, it's one of the strangest
coincidences I ever come across, I've
been here a dozen times, and I never
hoard of anybody that hud seen It."
"dot them to anchor, Tom," I said,
breathlessly,
"What for?" he nsked.

"Why, don't you see what a chance It

Tom looked at me for a moment
doubtfully. "Well," he said, "It's as
good -a place as any, 1 suppose, and we
can talk it over afterwatds."
lie wont aft and spoke to the skipper,
who glanced round him and nodded,
and in less thuu live minutes more the
rattle of the chain announced that we
had dropped anchor within a very few
yards of the spot where I had seen
the strange shadow of what looked like
a Spanish ship of three hundred years
ago.
That night Tom and I discussed the
treasure ship. At first he wus dis
posed to laugh at my Idea of examin
ing her, but gradually, 1 think, my en
thusiasm affected him a little. After
all. It was a small matter to make tho
trial. "We had several suits of diving
dresses on board, and as we were to
lie here for a couple of days there wus
no real dllllculty about the matter. I
was wild to make the experiment In
person; and, as Tom's principal objec
tion seemed to be the risk of being
laughed at by the captain and crew, we
hit upon the idea of making It appear
to be only my personal curiosity to ex
plore the wonders of the coral beds we
had seen from the deck. If what 1 had
seen proved to be the remains of the
galleon, we should run no further risk
of ridicule; and If It was only u rock,
as Tom to my great annoyance still
persisted In saying, no harm would
have been done. Bo we settled it at
last, and I went to bed to dream of
Spanish treasuies lying buried among
the branching coral of lllolo bay.
Tom, no doubt, dreamed of them, too,
for I found him In the morning much
more Interested in the search than he
hud appeared the night before. When
I came on deck I found him busying
himself with the diving apparatus and
more than half Inclined to make the
experiment himself. AVe agreed at
last, however, to stand by our last
night's arrangement, as I had had
enough practice In diving to be able
at any rate to ascertain whether the
obeet we had seen was anything that
really called for further investigation.
At breakfast we broached the sub
ject to the captain and mate, and I
was surprised to find thnt the former
at any rate received the proposal with
uneasiness.
"The fact is," he said at last, "l don't
"MIND YOU IHTLL THE CORD IF
ANYTHING OOICH WHONU."
half like these diving experiments,' in
these waters, anyhow, for ye never
know wliatil happen. So far us I've
seen they've u way of turning out bud
ly. You'd hardly believe how many
seem to get lost at the game. You
take my advice, sir, and see all ye
can ftoin the deck, then yeil know
where ye ute, which ye don't--not even
when ye gut hitched up uuiungst these
thundering coinlx below."
The skipper, If not un educated mun,
had yeats of experience, and 1 couldn't
help feeling thut we should have been
wise to listen to his advice, but then, of
course, he knew nothing of the real ob
ject Tom and I had In view that Was
surety worth running sotiui small risk
for. As It was, both Tom and argued
the matter with him for some time un
til at last he gave way.as he had no very
definite reason to urge against our
making the trial. Even then, how
ever, lie didn't like It, for lie said nt
the very last: "Oh, well, sir, it ye must
try It 1 suppose ye must. Take your
own way, only 1 hope Mr. Madison will
bear me out with the owners that it
wusn't by none of my advice ye went, in
case any harm comes of it."
After breakfast wo set to work to
prepare for the expedition. Uy that
time, however, the brig was surrounded
by canoes, and the decks Invaded by as
many natives as could persuade the
guard of seumen, on any pretext, to
allow them on board. The time was
dearly unpropltlous for our purpose,
and we reluctantly postponed It for a
few hours. I paced the deck In a fever
of ItnpatlenO all the morning, wholly
unable In my excitement to llnd the
amusement which 1 ordinarily did in
the manners and customs of our vis
itors, and only anxious to get rid of
them that I might begin my adventure
in peace. After a twelve o'clock dinner
a boat's crew was otdered out to lake
the skipper ashore to the nearest vil
lage, nnd he was quickly followed by
all but one or two of the canoes. Now
was the opportunity for which we had
been waiting so Impatiently, and In a
very few minutes all was ready and I
stood at the gangway, arrayed in the
ungainly diving suit und leady to make
the descent.
vs; ati a. V T
"Here," said Tom, as lie cast a final
and critical glance over my equipment.
"You had better take this with you. It
may be a shade troublesome.but 1 faicy
you'll liud It none too easy to get about
through the coral when you're, oncj
among it." He handed me a small but
sharp und serviceable-looking toma
hawk as he spoke. "Besides," he added.
In a lower tone, "if it should by any
chance turn out to be the galleon, It'll
take you all your time to get aboard, I
fancy, and you'll be glad of this."
"All right," I said, as I grasped the
handle rather clumsily In my heavily
gauntletted hand, "now 1 think I'm
about ready for a start."
The sailors, who. having nothing else
to do, had taken a lively interest In our
proceedings, had let down a rope lad
der over the side, which hung some
feet Into the water and swayed gently
In the tideway. 1 scrambled over the
bulwark and began to descend slowly,
hampered as I was by the stiff leather
dress and the weights attached to my
legs to Insure my speedy descent feet
foremost. I had reached the water,
and even descended ns far as the bid
der went under water, when I looked
up once more overhead, before making
the plunge. Turn's face, looking over
the bulwark, was just above me and
he called out: "flood luck! Mind you
pull the cord three times runnlnc If
anything goes wrong, or you want us
to haul you up."
I waved the tomahawk by way of
farewell, diew my feet clear of the
ladder, and let go. I had experience
the sensation before, biMI not often
enough to render It familiar, and 1 con
fess It was with a strange feeling of
novelty and sense of mysterious ex
pectancy that I found myself sinking
through the softly transparent water,
till suddenly my feet felt the cround
once more and I stood amongst the
coral beds at the bottom of lllolo bay.

and tins die l'avmcut Opened.
Court Tuesday granted a tule to
show cause why judgment should not

10, 17 and IS, according to an announce
ment In The Open Letter, the prohibition-religious
paper published at Forest
City by Hev. J. C. Hogan. The meet

West Side.
According to Mr. Hogan the call for
the conference Is contulned In a. set
of resolutions signed by residents of
tw only-live stutes and Canada. The
purpose of the gathering Is general

SALVATION' AHJIV IDEA.
Our Idea In this movement Is not an
other sect, but to aim at as simple a
union us possible 111 the bonds of Christ
like the eurly disciples, to be character
ized by the old time life und zeal of the
Salvation Army, but to make u broader
application of the Oospel than the
army people havo ever undertaken, espe
cially In lelct'on to the shum churcho"
und political sin and sinners; yet this Is
the Scripture Idea of a church Salvation
and Righteousness and will answer all
the purposes of a church In the Bible
sense. The sham chcrches have too
much man-made machinery. We want
more hoise anil less harness, moie Christ
and less Churchlsm.

MAGNOTTI IS ACCUSED.
Countrymen Claim He Fleeced Them Out
of Money by Pretending That He
Could Influence an Alderman.
A sequel to the Dambroslo murder
which may prove costly to the well
known contractor, Tony Mugnotti,
Wednesday developed in Alderinan
Howe's court.
At the time of the murder, Nov. 10
lust, Frank Cipriani), Hocco flltss and
Joseph Dambriislo were arrested as
accessories, but ut a hearing before
Alderman Miliar were discharged for
lack of evidence. While they were un
der arrest, they allege Magnuttl came
to them and agreed to secure their lib
erty for $25. Haphael Clptiano, broth
er of one of the accussed, advanced
the money and was well satisfied with
the Investment when he saw Ills thtee
ft lends murch out of court free men.
Htcently, however, he learned what
a more Intelligent man would have
known at llrst, that the alderinan had
not received any money from Mugnotti
and that Mugnotti had not excited any
Influence In the case whatever.
Upon seeming what he considers
positive proof of this lie swore out a
warrant for Magnottl's arrest and yes
terday hud him bofoie Alderman Howe
charged with obtaining money under
fulse pretenses. At the hearing the ac
cused clulmed that while it was tine,
he did not give uny of the money to
the uldermun; he paid It out for con
stable's costs and attorneys' fees.
In order to give him an opportunity
to substantiate this statement the case
was adjourned until Saturduy. Attor
ney Frank to. Boyle appeared for the
prosecution, and Vosburg & Dawson
for the defense.
